Belgium is a beautiful country, undeniably charming and full of colour and atmosphere. It has had a long and eventful history that has made it a favourite among travellers and explorers. Travel to Belgium with Qatar Airways and discover an enchanting country right in the very heart of Europe.

Historically, this part of Europe is the most intriguingly complex part of the entire continent. This is because it is squeezed between the Netherlands, Germany and France and has frequently been crucial in holding the balance of power in the region.

Belgium has one of the finest artistic legacies in the whole of Europe, from the Flemish Primitives to majestic Gothic creations in stone to Art Nouveau masterpieces and surrealism. Whether you have a passion for art or not, Belgium certainly delivers on many fronts.

The rich artistic heritage of Belgium stared in the late Middle Ages in Bruges, and the influence of the Flemish Primitives spread from there right across Europe.Hans Memling and Jan van Eyck were just two of the key players and their works are featured at the Groeningemuseum in Bruges. Surrealism, too, found a home here in Belgium; the cultural icons of Georges Simenon of Inspector Maigret fame and the fictional Tintin both hail from these parts.

There are various ways of getting around Belgium to see the sights, including boat, bus and car. The famous canals are probably the most leisurely way of travelling inside the country, and while taking a barge is slow, it’s certainly the option with the best scenery.The landscape is largely flat and is sprinkled with castles and other monuments, and many of the towns have their medieval walls still intact.

Fly to Belgium with Qatar Airways and you’ll soon find out why this little country is one of Europe’s most precious gems.
